As organisations rely more on cloud services and the Internet, the network has become a black box they can’t understand. Our Internet and cloud intelligence platform delivers the only collectively powered view of the Internet, cloud and SaaS platforms, helping enterprises and service providers work together to identify problems before it impacts revenue, damages brand reputation, or halts employee productivity.In August 2020, Cisco Systems completed the acquisition of ThousandEyes, which now forms the ThousandEyes Business Unit within Cisco’s Network Services Business Group and is a foundational component of Cisco’s growing Observability business.This role would be to support SamKnows, another Cisco acquisition, which extends Cisco ThousandEyes’ industry-leading view of the Internet and hybrid workforce experience.About SamKnowsLast year, ThousandEyes acquired SamKnows, and, in an era where connectivity is paramount, the acquisition of SamKnows marks a significant step forward in our mission to enhance network visibility and performance, particularly in the critical last-mile segment and within consumer homes.

We Are Cisco#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference. Here’s how we do it.We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we’re “old” (30 years strong!) and only about hardware, but we’re also a software company. And a security company. An AI/Machine Learning company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do – you can’t put us in a box!But “Digital Transformation” is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, we give our egos a break, and we give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, we take bold steps, and we take difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a commitment to equality for all, there is no moving forward.So, you have colourful hair? Don’t care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That’s cool.Message to applicants applying to work in the U.S. and/or Canada:When available, the salary range posted for this position reflects the projected hiring range for new hire, full-time salaries in U.S. and/or Canada locations, not including equity or benefits.
